Cognitive Science Program Courses

Students majoring in cognitive sciences must complete 5 core courses & 7 additional courses. Among the 7 additional courses, at least 3 and no more than 4 must be in a single area of concentration--linguistics, philosophy, psychology, or neuroscience. The additional courses are listed below; to view the core courses, click here.
